Excessive stretching of the vascular wall in accordance with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) induces a variety of pathogenic cellular events in the pulmonary arteries. We previously reported that indoxam, a selective inhibitor for secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2), blocked the stretch-induced contraction of rabbit pulmonary arteries by inhibition of untransformed prostaglandin H2 (PGH2) production. The present study was undertaken to investigate involvement of sPLA2 and untransformed PGH2 in the enhanced contractility of pulmonary arteries of experimental PAH in rats. Among all the known isoforms of sPLA2, sPLA2-X transcript was most significantly augmented in the pulmonary arteries of rats with monocrotaline-induced pulmonary hypertension (MCT-PHR). The pulmonary arteries of MCT-PHR frequently showed two types of spontaneous contraction in response to stretch; 27% showed rhythmic contraction, which was sensitive to indoxam and SC-560 (selective COX-1 inhibitor), but less sensitive to NS-398 (selective COX-2 inhibitor); and 47% showed sustained incremental tension (tonic contraction), which was insensitive to indoxam and SC-560, but sensitive to NS-398 and was attenuated to 45% of the control. Only the rhythmically contracting pulmonary arteries of MCT-PHR produced a substantial amount of untransformed PGH2, which was abolished by indoxam. These results suggest that sPLA2-mediated PGH2 synthesis plays an important role in the rhythmic contraction of pulmonary arteries of MCT-PHR.
